How to Connect a Keyboard to a PSP

Connecting your Sony PSP to an external keyboard used to be a frustrating exercise until Sony offered keyboard support via mini-USB in 2009. Now you are able to hook up an external keyboard to your PSP with minimal hassle. Doing so will allow you to browse the web more easily, and, if you use your PSP as a media library, it will allow you to navigate your data without having to rely on the cumbersome controls built into the device.
